No Jury Yet.

RAvENNA, o., Dec. Especial +
The grind commenced again this morn
ing in the Hulligan murder case, num-
Der three, and it looks very much as
though the defense were going to
exhaust all of their peremptory
challenges. Forty-eight men were on
hand when court opened and A. d.
Beardsley was the first man who quail
fed himself as a juror. The defense
have exercised seven peremptory chal-
lenges and still have sixteen in reserve.

TROY, N. Y, Dec. Especial. J.
Information was received here this
morning that the Montreal express on
the Delaware & Hudson Canal railroad
which left Troy at 1905 a. M, ran of
the track when near the station OF
Whalensburg. The station and cars
were set on fire. The wires are down
and no details can be had; but it is
feared that many passengers have been
killed, as the train was heavily loaded.
ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. 7.-[Special.l +
Superintendent Hammond, of the Della
ware & Hudson Canal Railway Com
pany, says that the Montreal express
going north was wrecked at an early
hour this morning while exactly oppo-
site the Whalensburg station. The
accident was caused by broken axle
under the tender. The station, a bag
gage car, an express car and one pas
senger coach were destroyed by fire.
At first it was reported that an old lady
was seriously hurt by being thrown
from her berth in the sleeping car, but
later information states that no one
was injured. The wires are down, and
it is impossible to obtain any definite
news at the present time.

"Muoh Older rhan Her Husband" !"

We heard a young girl make the above
remark the other day about a lady
with whom we are slightly acquainted.
It was not true, yet the lady in question
actually does look five years older than
her husband, although she is really sew
eral years his junior. She is premature
ly aged, and functional arrangement is
the cause. DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription would cure her, and should be
recommended to her, and to all others
who are in the same condition. If the
reader of this chances to be similar
sufferer, let her get the prescriptions,
1t will bring back her lost beauty, and,
better still, it will remove all those dis
tressine symptoms which have made
life burden to her so long Money

THE.New York Sun announces its
intention to support Cleveland next
year. This is the paper which called
Grover ,horrid names three years ago
and said he couldn't carry New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut. Having
discovered that Grover is statesman
and a gentleman, the Sun is manly
enough toe1o the right thing, hence its
conversion. And this journalistic
change of heart is in the nature of a
good-sized political straw. Thousands
and hundreds of thousands will vote
for Cleveland next year who refused
him support in 1884.

was more extravagant. but it created a
sensation. The landlord and all the
walters came in turns to look at the
extraordinary Englishmen who had
such gigantic appetites. Here is the

HlNDOO HOUSE LIFE.
The Humiiiations to Which the Women {
India Are Subjected.

India Are Subjected.
Now for an idea of a Hindoo wonl-
ans home life. She lives IN a small
room almost destitute. The floor and
walls are of clay. with no ornamental
ton of any sort and the least furniture
possible. Every morning she has to
pray-not for herself, as she is taught
that she has no soul-but for her hus-
band, for rain and general blessings.
Then she spends two or three hours
preparing the breakfast. She doesn't
eat with her husband, but. perhaps,
fans him at his request. During the
daytime she either sleeps, gossips with
the other women, OF sometimes read
er reads to them from the lives of the
gods. These stories are unfit for human
ears. they are vile from beginning to
end. The children and women are
taught them. At night they prepare
their husbands meal in the same man
ner. They are not protected against
the weather and dampness, nor are
they properly fed and clothed. The
rich live the same as the poor. If sick
they are deemed cursed by the gods
and are taken to The stable and left
alone. The only food they can get is
left by stealth. Thousands die of neg
lect. The first day that Hindoo boy
abuses his mother is festive occasion
with his father, who boasts of it to his
friends. To be widow is the sun of
unhappiness. She is especially cursed
by the gods. AS the husband dies,
half dozen BARRIERS wives rush upon
her and tear the jewelry from her ears
and nose. Behind the funeral cortege
she follows, surrounded by those
friends, who throw her into the water.
If she browns they say she was a good
wife after all. She has gone to meet
her husband. She Is kept in dark
ened room for fourteen days. At the
end of this time her husbands ashes
are taken to the river, and, after a
peculiar ceremony of prayers, the soul
is supposed to be free. 1t may enter
an insect or an animal. The worst
punishment the soul can sustain is to
enter the body Of a woman.-Phila-

How to Secure = Fair Yield of Vegetables
Sown from Seed.
In the case of almost all crops sown
from seed where they are to stand, as
beets, carrots, parsnips and turnips,
many more plants come up than can
perfect themselves if left to struggle on
alone. just as soon as all danger Of
insect enemies has disappeared. the
careful cultivator will begin thinning
out. This is done by hand or with a
hoe. An expert with the latter imple-
ment in large-tield culture, can strike
the plant which he desires to remove
almost unerringly with the corner of
his hoe, leaving those which remain at
equal distances apart. Those not quite
so dexterous, must have recourse to
hand thinning. Whichever way is used,
it is fatal to leave the work until the
plants are crowding each other. Any
Of the crops named above should stand
finally not less than nine inches to
foot apart. Young beets and carrots
can both be used, hence may be left
thick at first, to be thinned as wanted
for the table. Onions may be left closer
together than any other crop we know
of. If the plants are two or three
inches apart in the double or triple
rows, and the soil is rich, the onious
will spread over and crowd each other
into one solid mass. Peas can easily
be injured by sowing too thickly;
double rows three inches apart, alter
mated, is plenty thick enough for them.
Plants that are transplanted. as the
cabbage, caulifower and the like, do
not suffer so much by overcrowding.
Annual flower seeds sown in the open
ground where they are expected to
flower are vastly benefited by giving
each plant plenty of room in proper
ton to the nature of its growth. This
is so true that if left very thick as they
Usually come up, and allowed to strug.
gle against each other as the wild
weeds, the strongest manage to ge:
high enough to flower, perfect their
seed, and finally die OF starvation. The
same kinds of plants with abundance
of room, will on the contrary, continue
TO flower perhaps all through the nlnar
